Chinese Body Clock
After our call this evening, the theme was SLEEP OPTIMIZATION, we got talking about the Chinese Circadium Body Clock..... "Chinese Medicine’s 24 hour body clock is divided into 12 two-hour intervals of the Qi (vital force) moving through the organ system. Chinese Medicine practitioners use The Organ Body Clock to help them determine the organ responsible for diseases. For example, if you find yourself waking up between the hours of 3-5am each morning, you may have underlying grief or sadness that is bothering you or you may have a condition in the lung area. If feelings of anger or resentment arise, you may feel them strongest during the time of the Liver which is 1-3am or perhaps if you experience back pain at the end of your working day, you could have pent up emotions of fear, or perhaps even Kidney issues. The Body-Energy Clock is built upon the concept of the cyclical ebb and flow of energy throughout the body. During a 24-hour period (see diagram that follows) Qi moves in two-hour intervals through the organ systems. During sleep, Qi draws inward to restore the body. This phase is completed between 1 and 3 a.m., when the liver cleanses the blood and performs a myriad of functions that set the stage for Qi moving outward again. In the 12-hour period following the peak functioning of the liver—from 3 a.m. onward—energy cycles to the organs associated with daily activity, digestion and elimination: the lungs, large intestine, stomach/pancreas, heart, small intestine. By mid-afternoon, energy again moves inward to support internal organs associated with restoring and maintaining the system. The purpose is to move fluids and heat, as well as to filter and cleanse—by the pericardium, triple burner (coordinates water functions and temperature), bladder/kidneys and the liver. 5 am to 7 am is the time of the Large Intestine making it a perfect time to have a bowel movement and remove toxins from the day before. It is also the ideal time to wash your body and comb your hair. It is believed that combing your hair helps to clear out energy from the mind. At this time, emotions of defensiveness or feelings of being stuck could be evoked.

Do you feel like something is "missing"?
I wanted to share, I've just finished the 'soul purpose' 5 day program in the Soul Purpose community. I've been in this group for a couple of months and have been going through multiple trainings, it's transformed my life. Connected me to who I really am, my purpose on this earth. I've realised that my life isn't about me, its about the impact I have on the people I come in to contact with. That I am a part of the collective energy of the universe, oneness. If this resonates with you, I highly recommend joining Yuki's group. I'd say its the best thing I've done in years. https://www.skool.com/soulpurpose/about

Sleep Checklist ✅
Good morning! For those of you who went through the SLEEP & FAT LOSS training, here is the one page checklist that you can print off if needed. I always find that when I'm trying to implement new things in to my life, I need an actual physical reminder, I actively stick it up on my wall so that its visible daily. Could be a post it note, or some kind of trigger to remind me of the new thing I'm doing. Once I've done it enough times and it feels like a habbit and I'm in the routine, I take it down. Think about brushing your teeth, do you need a post it note in the bathroom to remind you to brush? No, because you've done it so many times it's ingrained, a habbit, a natural occurrance that doesn't require effort to remember. Repitition is the master. If you do something on repeat enough times, it actually builds new neurological pathways in the brain 🧠 If you haven't watched the replay, it's in the classroom, under WVH REPLAYS. You can find it here Let me know if you find the checklist helpful. Sam x
